Sup fellas, newbie here I got a 00 silverado with a 4.3 looking to do an LS swapp maybe a 6.0. The truck is far from stock I would say the only stock part of the truck is the 4.3. It's bagged on 22's custom paint fiberglass center console for subs ect ect, the only thing it lack is an LS rumble... Surely im not the first one to do this so you guys point me in the right direction.
Talk to ducky. His truck started as a 4.3 and is now one bad sum b.
WElcome to the site, lots of data here. Good luck with your swap.

Welcome
welcome! your truck looks good!!!
theres plenty of knowledge around here to get the swap done!!!!
Welcome. You're probably closer to the AZ guys than some of us LOL. Post pics.
Truck looks great man. With the info these guys have the swap will be a breeze.
Welcome! A V6 to V8 swap will be kinda challenging, but it is important to get the necessary parts ready--like a new V8 wiring harness, motor mounts, the MOTOR, etc. What motor you thinkin about?
welcome :pics:
challenging??? get the harness, the mounts, and a tune(just because) a cherry picker, set of standard sockets and wrenches, ls1truck in your favorites to refer to and have at it, it take no time if you have all the parts together and just do it.Quote:
